Failed Units

When a student fails a unit then they may be eligible to take that unit again in future time periods or intakes. The following enrolment outcomes are considered equivalent for the purposes of this test:

  • ENROLMENT_WITHDRAWN

  • ENROLMENT_FAILED

Meeting pre-requisites for future time periods in the current time period

It is common practice for providers to open unit registrations to students before the results of the current time period have been ratified or published. When this practice is followed it is necessary to make the assumption that the student will, all things being equal, complete their currently enrolled units at the end of the current time period. This is necessary when there are pre-requisite rules defined on the course plan.

Paradigm considers the following enrolment status codes as equivalent to the student having successfully completed the unit for the purposes of allowing students to perform new unit enrolment:

  • ENROLMENT_COMPLETED

  • ENROLMENT_EXEMPT

  • ENROLMENT_SATISFIED

  • ENROLMENT_TRANS_CRED

These status codes are only considered when the course plan is set as open to students, meaning when the current date is within the date range defined in the configuration period UNIT_ENROLMENT

Implications

Info

INFO:

When you create a scheduled unit, the staff member/user has the ability to limit the number of participants or enrolments available within a scheduled unit. When students are enrolling themselves via the course plan, students will select the unit on the first page and then click enrol. It is on the second page that the course plan will indicate how many places are still available within that schedule – and if the student can enrol into that scheduled unit or not. If the schedule is full, the student will receive the message class full need to select an alternative unit.

This can be useful when classrooms have limited capacity, or you want to limit the number of students within a scheduled unit for what ever reason.

NOTE:

The System can be set up so that student can confirm their current contact details (Addresses, email, phone numbers) prior to accessing the Course Plan. This can be set up to be confirmed every study period, or once a year.

Note

BE ADVISED:

When the system checks for potential timetable session clashes it will only assess scheduled units that have an a unit status of Confirmed, Applied and Enrolled. All other statuses are excluded from the check.
